The new Nis­san GT-R’s finally landed at Tokyo!

Here’s a run down of some final specifications:

• VR38VETT (3.8L Twin Turbo) dump­ing out 353KW (473HP, 480PS) and 588 Nm (433 lb-​​ft)
• 6 speed, Borg Warner six-​​plate dual-​​clutch transmission
• On sale Decem­ber 6 2007 in Japan
• Brembo 6-​​piston brakes in front, 4-​​piston in rear
• Bil­stein (DampTronic) suspension
• Black Edi­tion is listed as 4WD — expected, and now confirmed.

But per­haps the most amaz­ing thing isn’t the release of this amaz­ing new car, per­haps it’s a lit­tle tid­bit given almost as an aside over at Auto­blog. They claim “Mr. Ghosn com­mit­ted to Nis­san field­ing GT-​​Rs in next year’s Super GT Cham­pi­onship” !
The GT-​​R is com­ing back to motor­sports proper, and this means the Godzilla is well and truly back in the game.
